CHINESE & JAPANESE PORCELAIN

Japan, Heisei period (1989-2019)

Height: 31,5 cm.

 An earthenware vase with a rounded, teardrop-like or ovoid form, gently tapering towards the top. Its sandy beige surface is adorned with organic, orange flame-like patterns, the result of the hidasuki technique—a traditional wood-firing method. These irregular, intertwining lines wrap around the form, enhancing its natural aesthetic. With no applied glaze, the piece highlights the raw beauty of the clay and the subtle effects of the firing process, giving it an unrefined yet elegant character. The wide base ensures stability, while the narrowing upper section contributes to its graceful, organic silhouette.
